The following crypto PMDs use the Intel Multi-buffer library:
- AESNI MB PMD
- AESNI GCM PMD
- ZUC PMD
- KASUMI PMD
- SNOW3G PMD
When this library is built with gcc < 5.0, it might throw
some compilation issues. A workaround has been added in the
repo of this library, so a note on this has been added
to the documentation of these PMDs.

The libibverbs (and libmlx4/5) can be statically embedded
in the shared PMD library, or in the application with the static PMD.
It was supported with make build system in
commit 2c0dd7b69fb0 ("config: add static linkage of mlx dependency").
The same feature is enabled with meson when using pkg-config
(i.e. only if the call to dependency() is successful).
The fallback method for searching library with cc.find_library()
is not supported because the dependencies of the found library
would not be linked (no such info in .a file unlike .so).
The main difference, in meson build system, is the generated .pc file
giving arguments to link DPDK with the application.
Unfortunately the .pc file will not keep memory of the static linkage
option for libibverbs.

In current version, we are setting the ports
using portmask. With portmask, we can use only
up to 64 ports. This portlist option enables the user
to use more than 64 ports.
Now we can specify the ports in 2 different ways
- Using portmask (-p [0x]nnn): mask must be in hex format
- Using portlist in the following format
--portlist <p1>[-p2][,p3[-p4],...]
--portmask 0x2 is same as --portlist 1
--portmask 0x3 is same as --portlist 0-1

Currently MLX5 PMD can't match on untagged packets specifically.
Tagged traffic still hits the flows intended for untagged packets.
If the flow has ETH, it will catch all matching packets, tagged
and untagged.
The solution is to use cvlan_tag bit.
If mask=1 and value=0 it matches on untagged traffic.
If mask=1 and value=1 it matches on tagged traffic.
This is the kernel implementation.
This patch updated MLX5 PMD to set cvlan_tag mask and value according
to flow rule contents.
This update is relevant when using DV flow engine (dv_flow_en=1).
See example at https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/nics/mlx5.html#limitations.
